Summary: Buy Jeopardy ... If you LOVE Jeopardy!
Review: This game is for anyone that really likes to watch Jeopardy and wants learn something new. I pre-qualified for the "real" Jeopardy. I was never on the show however. The question are not outrageously hard. However, if you feel the questions are too hard ... keep playing at the same skill level. You will have repeated categories ... that will be your test. How good is your memory? It is a lot of fun if you play to learn instead of play to win!

I read other reviews about the "ring in" keys. The three ring in keys are, Control for player 1, Space Bar for player 2, and Shift Key for player 3. My experience with the game is, player 1 has an advantage over 2, and players 1 & 2 have an advantage over player 3. In another review, the writer stated that the shift key had a big disadvantage over the other two players. I find this totally untrue on my keyboard. So, the "flaw" in the game is not necessarily the same for all keyboards.

Don't let this stop you from buying the game. For my family, the fun is more in the knowledge received from playing. Even if you are at a disadvantage it is still fun. And, we change seats for each game. So, if you have the shift key (slowest ring in)for the first game you will have the control key (fastest ring in) for the second game.

Really ... BUY Jeopardy if you love Jeopardy!

Summary: So real.
Review: This game is so real. Alex Trebek really talks. Johnny Gilbert really anounces. You really hear "From the Sony Pictures Studios, this is JEOPARDY!" at the begining of each game. There's really aplause. You can fix the settings and save games. You can play normal, tournament or speed match games. Most of the questions are probably too hard for kids though.

Summary: Just like TV
Review: TV game shows always translate well to the PC and this one is no exception. I owned many a dos Jeopardy game, and the CD rom is most reallistic.

Unlike being on TV, I can usually be the all-time champ at this one.

Summary: Jeopardy Junkie
Review: We love the Jeopardy game. The music and sounds are pretty real, the questions are challenging (there are several levels to pick from), and one, two or three people can play. The down side is that the game is extremely picky about correct spelling of the question, even if you've selected the lenient choice. But overall, we love the game.
